Hi I'm Melinda, I have a passion for nature especially the love of animals and plants. At the moment in my life I have a new
online florist business and I work in retail on a casual basis, so pet sitting would fit in my schedule nicely. I like to think of myself as honest, reliable and trustworthy. I am a patient person so I understand that pets can require a lot of patience, attention and love. Pets are ultimately rewarding and give us so much happiness.
I have always wanted to work with plants and or animals in some way so pet sitting/dog walking feels like a good casual career choice for me complimented with my florist job. I especially love dogs, they are adorable. Currently I see my boyfriend's dog
regularly, a German Shepherd named Dana. She gets treated like a princess. We always take her out to Whiteman Park for walks and to socialise with other dogs and attend dog friendly events when possible. It's a great feeling to see a dog happy, wagging their tail, lolling their tongue about and getting all excitable. I also get to feed his fish in his inside aquarium, feed the cat and get cat cuddles in return. I have more pet experience when I see family and friends' pets. My aunty and uncle have quarter horses. I regularly see my friend's female
Rottweiler, along with his mum's Chihuahuas which are so adorable. I look forward to getting a Chihuahua in the future.
I am available for dog walking and for pet sitting work at your home by checking in with your pets on a home visit to feed them, give them clean
water, play with them, medicate them if they require it, groom them, provide general companionship
and attend to your pet's specific needs. If you are going away on holiday or business I am more than happy to come and look after your pets overnight at your place if you would prefer. I am most comfortable with caring for dogs, but can also feed cats, birds, rabbits, guinea pigs or fish if need be. Other duties I can perform include watering your plants, picking up pet
business, bringing in your mail/bins, etc.
Thank you for your consideration. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pets.

I have 9 years customer service experience in retail.
I am an empathetic, caring, honest, reliable, patient and trustworthy person.
I have good attention to detail and able to follow instructions required of me, take photos, make sure your pets are safe and having a good time.
I am definitely a dog person. I get along well with dogs both big and small and understand that your pets are part of your family and your best friend. I used to have a little dog (Shitzu/Silky Terrier) and budgerigars as childhood pets for 15 years.
Currently I see my boyfriend's dog regularly, a female German Shepherd. So I get to feed her, take her for walks and play with her many toys. I also get to feed his fish in his inside aquarium, and feed and cuddle the cat. I have more dog interactions when I see my friend's dogs on a monthly basis: his female Rottweiler, his brother's male Rottweiler and his mum's 3 Chihuahuas.
